Consumer review (newegg.com)

Died after 2 months

So far so good!

I brought this because I'm bored. I have an older mother board I'm dropping "newer" parts in to see how this old computer will compare to other top dollar computers I own. The mother board only has only has SATA (II) ports. I connected it with a SATA...

It worked ; Scored a 7.3 on that cheesy windows scale ; Price 45 dollars

Came in a white box no bigger then the drive itself with nothing included. Which is basically a message for "Good Luck

Slow Write speeds

The read speed was better (230MB/s) in fact more than twice the read speed of my hdd. I think I'll try to return this and get something faster. The manufacturers specs showed a read speed of 280MB/s and a write speed of 270MB/s. It really fell short on...

Price seemed to be reasonable

Slow write speed (77MB/s). In fact slower than my hdd. Kind of defeats the purpose, at least in part, of getting an ssd

(1)Didn't see blazing speed: Win 7 installed in the same amount of time my harddrives took(look below) ; It seemed to slow down with capacity increase even though it's an ssd, awkward ; I benchmarked the ssd and found the drive was performing at half...

Died in 40 days

I had this installed in my wife's laptop and all of a sudden the machine became unresponsive. Upon reboot, it'd not even detect the drive - I tried times but no use. I thought that it was covered under "60 days Manufacturer Warranty" but when I looked...
